Michigan's football program has been placed on three years of probation, fined, and hit with recruiting limits by the NCAA due to impermissible contact with recruits and players during the COVID-19 pandemic. The violations occurred under former coach Jim Harbaugh's leadership.
The NCAA announced that a negotiated resolution has been reached with the school, involving five former and current coaches and staffers. Notably, the settlement did not include allegations of Harbaugh failing to cooperate with investigators, which is now being treated as a separate case.
